A house RESOLUTION

 

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE Lexington High School girls lacrosse TEAM, COACHES, AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS FOR A STELLAR SEASON AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM FOR WINNING THE 2025 SOUTH CAROLINA CLASS AAAAA Division 1 STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.

 

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that the members of the Lexington High School lacrosse team captured the state title at the state competition held at W. C. Hawkins Stadium in Irmo on Saturday, May 3, 2025; and

 

Whereas, to the cheers of their exuberant fans, the Lexington Lady Wildcats defeated a fine, competitive Spartanburg High School 12-7 to win its first-ever girls lacrosse title and to become the sixteenth state championship team from Lexington High; and

 

Whereas, helping to build a 4-0 lead in the first quarter, senior Izzy Saville scored five goals in the team's third consecutive post-season match. On the defense for the Lady Wildcats, goalkeeper Emersin Clamp thwarted the efforts of the Spartanburg Lady Vikings' offense with fifteen saves; and

 

Whereas, Lexington stretched its lead to 9-2, and Spartanburg responded by scoring four straight goals before the end of the third quarter; and

 

Whereas, after a  pep talk from Lady Wildcats' head coach, the fourth quarter started, and Bella Adler took a stick to the face. Jada VanSickle substituted for her and quickly made the penalty shot to end Spartanburg's scoring run. Bella Adler returned to the match and scored within half a minute to make it 11-6. Anna Barger added her third goal of the game for Lexington, and the Lady Vikings managed just a final goal with a minute and a half to close out the scoring; and

 

Whereas, in a sport that demands speed, precision, and strategy, Head Coach Tiffany Tortorello and her skilled coaching staff capitalized on their own athletic experience and training to build a championship-caliber team and teach these athletes lessons that will endure beyond the lacrosse fields; and

 

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives values the pride and recognition that the Lexington lacrosse players have brought to their school and their community, and the members look forward to following their continued achievements in the days ahead. Now, therefore,

 

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

 

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, recognize and honor the Lexington High School girls lacrosse team, coaches, and school officials for a stellar season and congratulate them for winning the 2025 South Carolina Class AAAAA Division 1 State Championship title.

 

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Principal Jennifer McNair and Coach Tiffany Tortorello.
